Voracious listening habits factor into the productions of Kiso Armic, a Chicago native whose usually breezy and blissed-out tracks have covered house, EDM, and straight-up pop. Hearing his first Euro-dance track as a youngster and then seeing a video of a Tiësto performance set him on his path. By his early twenties, Kiso had created dozens of original tracks, and had also supplemented his already large discography with covers and remixes. Among his most popular singles from 2015 through 2017 were "Hvar (Radio Edit)" (with saxophone from MSP), covers of Ed Sheeran's "Shape of You," and Taylor Swift and ZAYN's "I Don't Wanna Live Forever," and "Good Life" (featuring Yvette, one of his many vocal collaborators). ~ Andy Kellman
